Microsoft Anti-Spyware?

Microsoft has jumped into the anti-spyware market, but is this a new approach to thwarting bugs, or are they gearing up to profit from a dubious industry they helped create?

There is a conflict of interest if they start charging for this product. If the antispyware starts pulling in mega-millions, what incentive is there to keep the holes out of new OSes, or to fix them quickly. It's just another reason for them to be slow in fixing their bugs.
